NBA preseason: Deandre Ayton debuted his Puma sneakers

Suns No. 1 pick Deandre Ayton signed with Puma back in June to be the face of the brand's dive back into men's basketball along with Marvin Bagley III and now DeMarcus Cousins. He just hadn't taken the court for an NBA game in Puma sneakers until now.

This was how Ayton looked in the new kicks, putting up 18 points and 7 rebounds in a win.

The Suns center took the court wearing the Clyde Court Disrupt shoes in the same (uh, bright) colorway that Bagley III has worn in every preseason game.

As was pointed out during Summer League, Ayton wore Nike shoes with Puma's blessing as the company worked to develop a shoe to fit Ayton's Size 18. He recently tested out the shoes in Suns practice and obviously determined that they were ready for game action.
